Unspent CHDO Money To Go To Low Income Building Projects

After a heated debate during the legislative session, KC City Council passed an ordinance authorizing the use of past unspent Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) money for two community housing development projects. The ordinance allows $774,914.83 to be spent on building two single-family houses and to rehab nine others in the Westside, Scarritt Renaissance and Blue Hills Neighborhoods for low income residents. These projects are facilitated through the Blue Hills Community Services and Westside Housing Organizations. These organizations are non-profits that aim to create solutions for low-income housing.
